Synopsis
Excerpt from Carthage
Pour bien comprendre la description des ruines d' une ville, il est nécessaire d' en connaitre au moins sommai rement les annales. Voilà pourquoi le présent volume se partage naturellement en deus: parties. Dans la pre mière, on trouvera un résumé de l' histoire de Carthage je dis de Carthage et non des Carthaginois, car si l' auteur s'est e/ïorcé de rassembler tout ce qui a trait à la ville même, punique ou romaine, il a systémati quement négligé ou indiqué seulement en quelques traits, pour ne pas rompre la trame du récit, les évè nements qui se sont passés loin des murs de Carthage. La seconde partie est la description technique, presque pierre à pierre, de tout ce qui émerge encore sur le sol et des fouilles qu'on a pratiquées dans ce siècle. Elle est accompagnée d'une grande carte, dressée pour l'atlas archéologique de la Tunisie. Nous ne crai gnons pas de dire que celui qui prendrait la peine de suivre cette description' topographique, pas à pas sur le terrain, notre carte à la main, connaitrait à peu près tout ce qu'il est raisonnable d'affirmer, dans l'é tat actuel de la science, sur identification des vestiges matériels, hélas si mutilés, de la puissante rivale de Rome.
